Description
We love beer and we love people! We think the global craft beer community is pretty cool, with barrels of knowledge to share. That’s why we’ve partnered with craft breweries in the UK, Germany, Belgium and Croatia to brew our first 7 beers as Ad Astra.

We started Ad Astra with the goal of creating really exciting craft beers in collaboration with other like minded breweries. Although we’re the new kids on the block, our team is made up of beer-know-it-alls, all with a love of collaborative brewing.

Take a look at our beers to get a taste of what we have in store.

330ml can. Pours a semi hazed gold, light wispy head. Aroma of banana bread, clove, citrus. Taste has a cereal malt, banana and citrus noted esters, light herbs but leads to a decent bitter punch. Medium bodied, light chewiness. Solid enough.

330ml can via Beer52, drank at home on 8th June 2025. Hazed dull old gold in body colour, white head that soon dissipated into a wisp and collar. Light citrus/tropical fruit aroma, taste follows the same lines, in a soft and subtle sort of way. Fairly 'fizzy' and moving towards the sweeter end of citrus scale.
